The Schmuck Talk Express™, John McCain, claimed today that Israel is the only freely elected democracy in the Middle East.
Ignoring our puppet state in Iraq, and ignoring the fact that he’s dissing such beloved allies as Saudi Arabia and Egypt, Big John is making just a little mistake or two.
Mistake one: Lebanon
Mistake two, which both Republicans and Democrats keep trying to shove under the rug: Palestine. Hate Hamas all you want, they won an election. Oops.
What is all boils down to is that the Bipartisan Foreign Policy Establishment in the U.S. is all in favor of free elections when it elections the people we think it should.
